Crypto’s big growth on the books and in the shadows
Cryptocurrency is being used more frequently in illegal transactions — about $158 billion was used in illicit crypto activity last year. That’s an all-time high, according to a new report from the startup TRM Labs. This comes as the overall crypto ecosystem is growing and, it should be said, legitimate uses of crypto are growing at a faster rate than illegitimate ones. Marketplace’s Stephanie Hughes spoke with Ari Redbord, global head of policy at TRM Labs and one of the authors of the new report, to learn more.

A 'bittersweet' milestone: a million meals per day in Gaza
The people of Gaza have faced the threat of hunger since the start of the war between Israel and Hamas.

World Central Kitchen is one of the major organizations fighting hunger in Gaza. This week, it announced a milestone: It is now serving one million meals in Gaza every day. NPR’s Ailsa Chang speaks with the organization’s founder, celebrity chef José Andrés, about what that milestone means and what still needs to be done.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.

The Man Who Lived is an alternate-history political drama podcast that asks one of the most enduring questions in American history: what if John F. Kennedy survived the assassination attempt in Dallas? Set in the turbulent years following nineteen sixty-three, the series imagines a presidency that continues — but under the weight of memory, trauma, and expectation. As JFK remains in the White House, the public still demands progress on civil rights, Vietnam, and the race to the moon, while private cracks form behind closed doors. A marriage strained by survival. A brother forced to weigh loyalty against power. A Democratic Party quietly questioning whether its most famous leader can still govern for the long term. Over the course of the season, The Man Who Lived follows a presidency drifting toward an unavoidable reckoning. Victories come easily. Confidence does not. As rivals inside the party sharpen their knives and a new political voice begins to draw strength from Kennedy’s survival, the question shifts from whether he can win again, to whether he should lead at all. Each episode moves closer to a moment no one is prepared to name: a choice that could fracture a family, reshape a party, and redefine how history remembers the man who did not die. From Caloroga Shark Media, The Man Who Lived premieres President’s Day — available wherever you get your podcasts.

A teenager gets caught up in an out-of-control conspiracy theory that he helped start. A Pakistani business owner finds hundreds of his Brooklyn neighbors are disappearing.
